Powershell scripts verbose output to console

Guys, I'm having a newb NetApp powershell problem.  Some commands while run in the powershell window manually output a nice short clean response, however when I try to use the same command in a script I verbose output.  While the data from the verbose output is very useful, I do not need all the info now.  Piping the command to a Select command produces the same result.

 

OUTPUT FROM COMMAND

PS C:\ Get-NaVfiler

Name Status Ipspace VfnetCount VfstoreCount AdminHost
---- ------ ------- ---------- ------------ ---------
XX-XXX-XXX-X01 running default-ipspace 1 2 XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

 

 

OUTPUT FROM SCRIPT

 

AdminHost : computername
DnsInfo : blah.test
Ipspace : default-ipspace
Name : XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX
NisInfo :
Status : running
Uuid : ef356f0e-2975-11e0-bb7f-00a098270b92
Vfnets : {XX.XX.XX.XX}
Vfstores : {/vol/XXX_XXX_XXX_XXX_ETC}
VfNetCount : 1
VfStoreCount : 1

Hello, can you let me know the format you executed the select command ? below example shows how you can selectively filter out parameters using select-object

 

PS C:\Windows\system32> Get-NaVol -Verbose | select name,totalsize,used | fl

I believe you want to add another pipe and use Format-table.  You can use -autosize to autosize the columns and if columns get cut off you can add -wrap to have the columns wrap to the next line.

 

See example:

 

PS C:\temp\openssh\bin> get-navfiler | select name,status,ipspace,vfnetcount,vfstorecount,adminhost


Name         : vfiler0
Status       : running
Ipspace      : default-ipspace
VfNetCount   : 3
VfStoreCount : 1
AdminHost    :




PS C:\temp\openssh\bin> get-navfiler | select name,status,ipspace,vfnetcount,vfstorecount,adminhost | format-table -autosize -wrap

Name    Status  Ipspace         VfNetCount VfStoreCount AdminHost
----    ------  -------         ---------- ------------ ---------
vfiler0 running default-ipspace          3            1
